Call Governor Brown and urge support for immigration services

by s son June 07, 2017

As harsh federal immigration policies undermine the well-being of immigrant communities and our State, California must defend due process and bolster affirmative relief from deportations. Deportations separate families, destabilize communities, and cost the State millions of dollars.

Through a robust investment in the expanded “One California” Immigration Services Funding, a program administered by the Department of Social Services, California can support keeping families together and communities whole.

California must do everything in its power to protect and advance the rights and opportunities of immigrant communities, as well as reduce both the emotional and economic impact caused by either detention or deportation.
